Oh lord, I hope 'Hikari realises contests aren't for her and decides to persue another dream' is on their agenda.

None of the pokémon she has are able to pull off appeals that interest the real world audience (us shmucks!) much, so they had to accurately portray the suckitude of Bubblebeam/Spark/Ice Beam in the show eventually. The massive, MASSIVE suckitude, naturally.

Besides, Jessie deserves a ribbon so much more than any other coordinator on this show, if only for her admirable persistance.

Yeah. I think the fact Jessie hasn't once used any cheap tricks to win AND has kept a persona all the way through really shows how she's become a better coordinator.

Anyway, Gravy, I have to admit Aipom's appeals and general battling styles were always my favorite visual treats especially her varieties of Stars and Double Team. It was like Naruto, if Naruto was a monkey...

Yes Jessie won the round. See they don't need a cordnator in the main group each year, just let Jessie do them. She's awesome at them...

The problem is that without a Coordinator in the main group, the writers don't have an excuse to go to towns where there's a Contest Hall but no Gym. They'd have to do two things that they don't seem willing to do: have Team Rocket not follow Ash & company around, and have an episode where Ash & company aren't present.

So we get like a whole month basically of bad fillers and then the writers give us this?! Why do they do that? Now we're gonna get another long stretch probably of fillers until we reach another character development ep.
It makes me sad. But at the same time ...
It's good to see Dawn is actually gonna have to try to be a cordinator unlike May who was just handed it. Also it right before the appeals happened I was thinking how sad it was that Jessie never wins at any of the contests and then BAM! she gets the ribbon. It would be kinda cool if Jessie got into the Grand Festival but I guess thats a really high hope.
Anyway here is hoping that Dawn will finally start training more and more so that the next contest she'll win.

Ambipoms appeal was awesome, it was a genius way to show how one move can pull off such a marvilous show, but those judges didn't seem the least bit interested WTF!?!?!? And jessie being the winner............... Double WTF!?!?!?!

Hey, at least Jessie's experience and determination finally paid off. However on the downside..*sigh* make way for angry Dawn fanatics who are probably going to be ranting for the remainder of the year. 'Yay'

What's more ironic is that Dawn wanted to be a coordinator from the get go while May had to discover what contest's were, it's kinda sad when you think about it though, that Dawn's getting lashed out hard because of May's many mistakes.

Also worth noting that Johanna has pics of Dawn, her pokemon, Ash and the others in her house for some uknown reason, wonder how she got em.

Look at it this way, Jessie has been playing it fair so far through the whole season, remember back in AG, she turned to cheating a couple of times which got her nowhere. Plus she hasn't even blown her disguise yet.

I'm not that fond of her either, (I like James better so nah) but I like the idea of her actually being a major rival instead of serving as the usual easy obstacle.

I also noticed Dawn was having a hard time handleing her lose when being confronted by Jessie. I also noticed a fist, I don't blame her, I too would love the chance to punch Jessie in the face. Poor Ambipom, Thanks you animators you sure made Ambipom's contest debut have a bad ending, I applaud them.

Hehe, I am so happy jessie finally won a contest. It wouldnt be fair if Dawn just trumped through and beat her at such a beginers level. Seriously Jessie has been at this for a REALLY long time. Finally she got her time to shine. Dustox was awesome, which brings us to the gligar episode. People were saying jessie will get a gligar. Sort of makes sense now that jessie has a contest skilled pokemon. She will probably lose it gain gligar and start losing again. lol just a guess. I dont care.
Back on topic, I feel so bad for ambipom. It totally got its dreams crushed. Dawn should have comforted her more than just a pat on the head. Thats what she gets for leaving ash to go with dawn. I think Dawn will start to win now and we will see her do well since she had that little scary talk with Zoey. Im starting to like her character now. She is starting to seem like she isnt so arrogant and annoying anymore.

You had way too many outside images and your signature was overstacking, so everything was erased. Please read the signature rules.

By the looks of the pic from #PM, it looks like Joey told Dawn what went wrong in her appeals & told her how to correct it. And Turtwig is having problem learning Energy Ball & it seems that if not done correctly the attack back fires on Turtwig though i am not sure whether it is the case or not.

What the hell is that? It looks like a cross between a Munchlax a beedrill and a Dunsparce?

WAIT! ahnd on I just figured it out! Its a dunsparce from Below! cool. I was looking at it as if it was a Pokemon running away with its back to the camera! But now I see the light, the Golden light that is the coolness for Dunsparce: The 4gottern pokemon!

She is starting to seem like she isnt so arrogant and annoying anymore.

Dawn was never arrogant, she was just a girly energetic girl which is completely different. It's the moments of her disappointment and sadness that makes me like her more. She recovers quickly but it's the moment of the fall that she takes the hardest. That makes her approachable.
